Seolhee's POV.

Me and Baekhyun are back on the SM TOWN building now. It's almost morning. I don't know how the boys manage to cover our absence yesterday but I'm very grateful that they did.

My heart really feels light now.
I unconsciously held my chest.
One that has been weighing me down for years had been lifted off my shoulders... The sorrow and grudges that I've been holding, vanished just like that.

I really hate myself for leaving my family, for not knowing or even asking why they did that to me.
I stared on my room ceiling, reviewing the scene when mom and dad saw me.

"Seolhee?" As soon as my name escaped her lips, tears started streaming down her face. She probably can't believe I had the guts to show myself again after 2 years.

She ran and hugged me tight, which I did not expect. I broke down into tears upon feeling my mother's warmth. The one that I've been longing for the past few years.
Dad embraced me as well, making me really cry a river.

I told everything to them. My lie... everything I have done. I was surprised they weren't mad. They actually apologized to me. I have also learned that, since I left they were all doing everything to look for me, but they just really can't. Uncle really kept his promise to me, for keeping me a secret.

"Why did you suddenly pushed me away?" My heart is breaking just by simply saying those words. That's the question I've been longing for an answer.

They pushed me away because they wanted me to know my real mom. They pushed me away because my real mother begged them to do, in hopes that I'll go and beg her to shelter me. That's way too far from what I have thought, so basically all of the hatred that I endured was purely a product of my pathetic assumptions. I really am dumb. Many years has been wasted on my hand.

But where is she? Where's my so-called real mom? All she do was order Bin to beg me and be with her. She never show herself to me since then. I still don't know how to face her anyway. My hatred towards her is slowly fading.

My alarm clock rang. I reached for it and turned it off.
"I'm awake. No need to ring"

I threw my head back to the pillow again. Aaaaah I really didn't sleep.
We have schedule todaay! Aah jinjjaa!

I subconsciously smile when Baekhyun crossed my mind.

If he didn't push me to show myself to my parents I wouldn't have done that. He gave me a lot of courage to do so. He even risk himself to accompany me. What did I ever do to deserve that man? Baekhyun is too good for me, really. Every girl would kill just to be in my place right now.

He confessed to me and he never fail to prove his feelings towards me. He didn't even ask for an answer. I don't know how must I react on that.

Last night he mumbled something on the air. I don't know if I heard it right. I'm not that deaf to not hear him. He was just few steps away from me.
The surrounding was pretty windy.
I didn't utter a word because I was not sure if I really heard it right.
I don't want to assume things. I asked him but he refused to repeat what he said.
